Gurugram, September 8, 2026: Hisense, a global leader in consumer electronics andhome appliances, has extended its partnership with UEFA as an Official Partner of UEFA EURO 2028, marking its fourth consecutive UEFA European Championship association. Hisense’s football journey began with UEFA EURO 2016 and has since expanded to includethe FIFA World Cups in 2018, 2022 and 2026.
The announcement comes as Hisense showcases its global sports and technology strategy at IFA 2026 in Berlin, with a dedicated UEFA EURO 2028 activation zone alongside its latest technology innovations.

Hisense’s display innovation, led by its pioneering RGB MiniLED technology and proprietary ULED (Ultra LED) technology, is redefining picture quality with enhanced colour, brightness, contrast and detail.

Pankaj Rana, CEO, Hisense India, said “Football has a strong and growing affinity among Indian audiences, and our continued association with leading global football platforms reflects Hisense’s long-term commitment to connecting sports, technology and entertainment. Our experience during the FIFA World Cup 2026, when we saw a 40–50% increasein sales of our large-screen televisions, demonstrated the growing demand for more immersive sports-viewing experiences in India. Extending our UEFA partnership builds on this momentum, while technologies such as RGB MiniLED can further transform the way fansexperience live matches at home. Our new headquarters and Experience Store in Gurugram are another step in this journey, enabling us to bring our innovations closer to Indian consumers and strengthen our presence in the market.”
